Ennui-slapping warrior

Posted in poem, ramblings, thoughts by

someone once told me
that I’m good
at slapping ennui

didn’t really know
what that meant
til recently

listlessness and lethargy
dissatisfaction
in every corner
that I meet
seemed like
I’d always be
running
from despondency

melancholy and unease
satiety can’t be achieved
but through all these lies
my throat can’t choke down
I must stay fresh
with optimism

for this life is but
one rambling lesson

serotonin to survive
of which I get
in well dosed highs

I’ll conquer this
then be surprised
at all the times
I refused to fly
then skipped right through

first to the finish line

Just fuckin with ya

I used to think

                   that

                   I was

                            really fucking

                   clever

But

            I

               really fucking

      wasn’t

Waking up to go back to sleep

I feel like I’m about to spew

The apathy that inside brews

My guts are twisting 

While lungs cave in

I desperately gasp for air

This world of mine ain’t fucking fair

Forever plagued by shitty tears

It’s not emotion that drove me here

It’s physical, something a body can’t bear

I’m struggling to even breathe

Through this chest that’s knotted

With anxiety
